Andy Richter to Join Conan on THE TONIGHT SHOW

February 24, 2009 by  

Former LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN co-host Andy Richter will be joining Conan once again when Conan takes over as host of THE TONIGHT SHOW in June.  Accoring to THR.com Andy has been named the new TONIGHT SHOW announcer. But Richter’s involvement with the show will go beyond just the intro, he’ll be in “comedic pieces” as well according to NBC.

Personally I’m stoked to have Andy and Conan back together.  Andy will bring so much to the show without either men being held to a host/co-host relationship.  I’m a big fan of Andy Richter and welcome him back to TV on a more regular schedule.

    Awesome news for fans of old school Conan, and a fresh jolt to the late night formula, where announcers usually go to disappear. It was a joy watching Conan and Andy share a stage on the final Late Night, and this will help create buzz as we look towards the launch date.
